日本研究課程五十年 50 Years of Japanese Studies Programme

中大早於1967年成立日文組，由崇基學院負責開設選修科目。當時日本政府更派遣一位客座教授及兩位客座講師到該院任教。

1972年，日文組擴展成一獨立單位，隸屬文學院的法、德、日、意文委員會，提供副修課程。

嗣後，為回應社會對日語專才日益增長的需求，中大於1991年成立日本研究學系(日研系)，開辦主修課程，提供有關日本社會、文化和語言之學術訓練。該系的最大特色為安排同學到日本著名大學留學一年，修讀相關課程，又可感受當地生活。

目前日研系提供日本研究和語言的本科、文學碩士、及哲學碩士博士銜接課程。2015-16年度中大各學系共有約3,500人次報讀日研系的課程。

The University has launched its Japanese programme since 1967. It was first introduced by Chung Chi College, and the service of a visiting professor and two visiting lecturers was made available through the Japanese Government.

In 1972, the University decided to offer Japanese as a minor programme and so an independent section was formed, under the French, German, Italian, and Japanese Committee of the Faculty of Arts.

To meet the growing needs of the community for Japanese-speaking professionals, the section was renamed as the Department of Japanese Studies in 1991. Since then, the Department has offered a multi-disciplinary major programme including academic training in Japanese society, culture, and language. One strength of the programme is the arrangement of a year-long academic exchange study for all major students. Through the extensive networks with top universities in Japan, students has the opportunity to study in Japan and to experience the culture.

Today the Department has developed into a comprehensive programme providing both undergraduate and postgraduate (Master of Arts & Articulated MPhil-PhD) training in Japanese studies and language. In 2015-16, about 3,500 students from every department at the University enrolled in the language and non-language courses offered by the Department.
